SUMMARY:California’s Urban Forests in a Changing Environment
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Ritter will describe his 20 years working to understand patterns and change in California’s diverse urban forests. He will describe research involving the California Urban Forest Inventory project and SelecTree. Climate change has and will continue to affect the state’s urban areas. Can we predict how urban tree species will respond to increasing temperature and variable precipitation? Ritter will discuss patterns and trends in tree selection and considerations for helping to ensure a healthy urban forest for California cities in a time of climate change and decreasing biodiversity. What should we consider when choosing a tree species for planting? Carbon sequestration potential\, aesthetics\, water use\, provenance\, and culture all play a role.

SUMMARY:America Recycles Day TRUE Zero Waste Precertification Training
DESCRIPTION:Join USGBC-LA for a special America Recycles Day Training opportunity! \nREGISTER HERE \nTRUE (Total Resource Use and Efficiency) is a comprehensive certification program recognizing facilities for minimizing resource consumption\, preventing waste\, and redesigning material life cycles so that all residual materials are reused in a closed loop. TRUE was developed as a leadership standard to recognize sites that have defined and achieved their zero waste goals\, making positive impacts on people\, the environment\, and the economy locally and globally. However\, leadership is not confined to those that have reached zero waste. Leadership is taking the first step\, and all the steps that follow. \n  \nTRUE zero waste Pre-certification Path: \nTRUE pre-certification recognizes projects which have implemented the fundamental actions and policies needed to effectively pursue zero waste and have demonstrated a commitment to achieving TRUE certification. As such\, pre-certification is available to all projects regardless of the level of diversion performance that has been achieved. \nIt is an optional\, incremental pathway to formal certification that prioritizes the core actions essential to getting a successful start: auditing\, analyzing\, and aspiring to zero waste. As pre-certification is an optional step and is not required for TRUE certification\, project teams may choose to skip pre-certification and pursue TRUE certification directly\, if they are ready. The information outlined below offers details on the requirements and how to achieve pre-certification using the TRUE rating system. \n  \nObjectives: \n\nLearn trends on the zero waste and circular economy solutions\nUnderstand how you can start with TRUE zero waste pre-certification path in your facility\nComprehend the importance of the TRUE minimum program requirements (prerequisites)\nUnderstand the importance of a zero waste audit\n\n  \nTake Aways \n\nCreate your own path to pre-certification\nVolunteer facility to follow through the process\nOpportunity to become a TRUE Advisor

SUMMARY:Climate Change\, Health and the Built Environment Discussion Series\, Part 1: California's Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the UCLA Ziman Center for Real Estate’s Housing as Health Care Initiative\, UCLA Center for Healthy Climate Solutions and Impact@Anderson. \nREGISTER HERE \nWith an increasingly urgent need to adapt to our changing climate\, the built environment offers unique opportunities for programs and new practices that can protect and improve human health. In order to effectively capitalize on these opportunities\, it is critical to engage stakeholders from real estate\, development\, public health\, public policy\, climate adaptation\, and other industries. The challenges – such as more frequent and severe heat waves\, wildfires\, hurricanes\, and floods — can be destructive to the built environment\, harm human health\, and displace communities. However\, the solutions offered by intersectoral work can be cost effective\, simple\, and innovative. Through discussion and collaboration\, implementing these types of solutions can add value to real communities\, increase resilience\, and improve quality of life. \nThe first installment in this series\, California’s Landscape\, will provide an overview of the current threats to our state (extreme heat\, wildfire\, sea level rise\, drought\, air quality) and discuss the ways each of these issues is mitigated/exacerbated by the built environment. Each of these topics will be linked back to health and equity and will lay groundwork for understanding the level of threat and set up discussion about ways to respond. \nSpeakers include: Lara Cushing\, PhD (UCLA Fielding School of Public Health)\, David Eisenman\, MD\, MSHS (David Geffen School of Medicine and UCLA Fielding School of Public Health)\, keynote speaker Richard Jackson\, MD\, MPH (UCLA Fielding School of Public Health)\, moderator Tim Kawahara (UCLA Ziman Center for Real Estate)\, Elizabeth Rhoades\, PhD (Los Angeles County Department of Public Health)\, Ryan Vaughn\, PhD (Jupiter Intelligence).

SUMMARY:COP26\, Climate Regulation and Beyond: How Business Leaders can Become Effective Climate Leaders
DESCRIPTION:High Impact Tea featuring Mary Nichols\, Distinguished Counsel at UCLA Law\, Former Chairwoman of the California Air Resources Board\, in conversation with Dr. Magali Delmas\, Professor of Management at the Anderson School of Management and the Institute of the Environment and Sustainability. \nREGISTER HERE \nWith COP26 underway and almost to its conclusion\, we wanted to feature Dr. Mary Nichols\, whose work spans the gamut of environmental law and policy. Her long tenure working in this field through four gubernatorial administrations in California has made her a model of conversation\, collaboration\, and outcomes\, managing to balance the interests of utilities companies\, communities\, activists\, policy-makers\, financiers\, and the auto\, oil and gas industries without getting co-opted. This High Impact Tea will explore what will come next in environmental regulations\, how young graduates can have an environmental impact\, and how each of us can influence corporations to be truly green. Dr. Nichols will be in conversation with Maggie Delmas\, Professor of Management at the Anderson School of Management and the Institute of the Environment and Sustainability at UCLA and Faculty Director of the Center for Impact at Anderson. \nThe High Impact Tea is a quarterly speaker series that features social impact industry leaders sharing stories about their successes\, and lessons learned in their careers. The social and educational event is open to faculty\, students\, staff and alumni across UCLA\, as well as the broader social impact community. It is designed to provide a forum for conversation and exchange of ideas among people committed to creating social\, environmental and economic impact around the world.

SUMMARY:Global Trends and The Future of Travel – The Role of Technology and Sustainability
DESCRIPTION:Join the Centers@Anderson and Professor Terry Kramer\, in conversation with M. İlker Aycı\, chairman of the board of directors and executive committee for Turkish Airlines\, Europe’s busiest carrier\, and the largest airline in the world by the number of passenger destinations served (315) . He will discuss global trends including trade issues\, growing nationalism and trade wars and their implications for the future of global travel. He will also address the longer-term effects on aviation that have been accelerated by COVID-19\, including digitization\, remote work and the importance of sustainability. Chairman Aycı will share his observations on the values and principles that will help guide the industry towards a healthier and more sustainable future and explain how responding to these shifts decisively now\, carriers should be able to look beyond the pandemic and adapt to the long-term realities of COVID-19 that are transforming global travel. UCLA Anderson Dean Tony Bernardo will provide opening remarks. \nThe pandemic has changed consumer and business behavior—and the airline sector—irrevocably. As remote working and virtual meetings become the norm\, the industry is likely to see a slow return of business travel. Many have questioned whether business travel will ever return to its original state pre-COVID-19. And digitalization and contactless technology will continue to transform the travel experience. Personalization\, hygiene and safety measures will be more important than ever. Tourism trends surrounding low-carbon travel will continue to evolve and travel will become greener and more efficient. Finally\, notwithstanding the challenges of COVID-19 and technology-based transformations – – many geopolitical trends have driven growing nationalism\, reducing global trade and travel. Will these trends be short term or become part of a “new normal?” \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Saging the World
DESCRIPTION:The viral trend of smudging is endangering white sage. Metric tons of white sage (Salvia apiana) are being poached across wildlands to supply an international demand for smudge sticks\, essential oil and other products. This plant is deeply rooted in the cultures and lifeways of Indigenous communities of Southern California and northern Baja\, the only region that white sage naturally occurs in the world. The devastating theft and the appropriated trend that it fuels stand in sharp contrast with the values and traditional practices of regional Native communities. Indigenous advocates express that white sage that has been irreverently ripped from the wild\, sold on the black market\, shipped across the planet\, and burned without regard for Indigenous practices has no medicine. Native people have long fought for the protection and recognition of white sage. Rose Ramirez and Deborah Small\, authors of the Ethnobotany Project\, and white sage advocates say it’s time to Sage the World: we need to boycott wildcrafted sage products\, grow native plants like white sage\, and reorient perspectives of plants as ‘resources’ to ‘relationships.’ David Bryant\, CNPS’s Director of Education & Engagement\, will speak about the Saging the World campaign\, sharing co-led efforts with Rose\, Deborah and Indigenous partners to protect this imperiled plant. \nInformation for logging onto the Zoom presentation will be posted on our website and Facebook twenty hours before the event and announced via email blast. If you are not on our Chapter email list\, subscribe by clicking here.
